I just received results from a submitted load using proreach powder. Its 8k psi and 1246fps.
We all know low pressure loads in 28ga are not common, so I'd be happy to share if you need it.
PM.
Hope this helps!!

Oppps. I see the confusion. Sorry
The testing was done by Precision Reloading using Proreach powder, Cheddite primers, red dusters and AAHS hulls.

What prompted the testing was years ago, Alliant had published what they claimed was a low pressure load in 28ga using proreach. I bought a pound and liked the way it patterned. Then I purchased 20 lbs for personal stock. Someone had the load tested a few years after, and informed Alliant that their load was considerably higher pressure than they were stating. Alliant pulled all of the proreach loads in 28ga. So, I had 20 lbs of proreach and no 28ga load for it. Now after testing, I have a low pressure load with great velocity using Proreach.

Word to the wise, if you are looking for a low pressure load, have your choice confirmed. Ill never again trust published load data.


I changed the original post to avoid further confusion.
